re: #318 Dark_Falcon

I’d accept that, if it were honestly meant as a rebuff against forced veiling and if the was no other way. But they way Wilders means it is little more than a “Fuck You!” to all Muslims. Such a thing can only make our Islamist problems worse.

I don’t see depriving women who want to wear it of the right as a reasonable way to protect women who don’t, quite simply. But you’re right, that’s the last thing Wilders cares about.

Any stats on how many women wear the full veil in the Netherlands anyway? They went NUTS in Switzerland, and then the stats were ridiculously low.
